don't have a drying book, most of these germans curl alot, so I just put them in a big book, now I'm trying this method and it works jsut the same as a big book, but lots quicker.

You can get tissue paper at any department store Sped. It's used when wraping gifts in boxes. It's kind of like very thin paper. The stamps don't stick to it at all. I think tissues may stick it there is a little gum left on the stamp. I let the stamps totally dry before I press them. I've dones lots's this way with no casualties and actually when I receive stamps that have creases or that are wrinkled I press them to. Maybee I was a proffesional dry cleaner in another life
